I have always believed in the saying,
“the more you give, the more it comes back
to you many times over.” The Bureshs
have been extremely hard workers, and as
a result of that hard work they have shared
their success with many over the years.
Ernie & Joanne had great role models
and friends in Howard and Margaret Hall.
Howard and Joanne both had their roots
here in Jones County (Onslow). Now
Ernie and Joanne Buresh have lled those
shoes by becoming wonderful role models
for the next generation.
Long-time supporters of Camp
Courageous, I remember Dr. Earl DeShaw
and I visiting with Ernie about the camp’s
perpetual fund in Ernie’s Anamosa ofce
in the early 80s. Ernie and Joanne were
among the rst to jump on board and have
been believers and supporters of the camp
ever since. They understand what a thrill it
is for campers with special needs to attend
Camp Courageous, and how, for most, it is
the highlight of their year.
I have personally treasured their
friendship and the special times we have
spent together over the years. They are
a wonderful couple and have raised a
beautiful family. Being somewhat of a
history buff, I could sit for hours and enjoy
the rst hand experiences the Bureshs have
had with the Halls and other great leaders in
the area. An absolutely fascinating couple!
The Buresh’s have given a major gift
to The Greater Cedar Rapids Community
Foundation to benet Camp Courageous
forever. In return, they want nothing. Ernie
is always quick to tell me, “save the forty-
four cents, no need to send a thank-you.”
But somehow, what they have done for
Camp Courageous is difcult to put into
words, and can never be thanked enough.
Our heart felt appreciation goes out to
Ernie and Joanne Buresh and their children,
Wendy S. Buresh, M.D. and Sandra Buresh
for helping make the future of Camp
Courageous very bright for thousands
of campers with special needs and their
families.

who donated and planted a tree in memory
of Leo Greco.
Thank you to Eric Zangerle, pictured with his
son, Ted, from Marengo Monument for the

Beautiful job!
Memorial dedicated for Leo Greco
This fall a memorial stone and tree were placed at Camp Courageous
for Honorary Board Member and radio personality Leo Greco. They are
located between the camp’s lodge and ofce buildings. The stone reads,
“In Memory of our Friend, Leo Greco,” and has a verse of The Little Red
Wagon on it, along with a picture of a little red wagon.

Birthday. Leo, along with many others,
had planned this special occasion since
Leo's 89th birthday. Unfortunately Leo did
not quite make it but he wanted the benet
to go on. Bill raised $7,000 to go toward a
new lift for camp's indoor therapeutic pool!
Bill Leichsenring stands in front of a

Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who
start cooking sausage before the sun comes
up for the camp breakfasts. Super group!
The Masons of Iowa have been wonderful
supporters of the camp for many years...
going back to the beginning of camp with Tait
Cummins. Here are three past and present
Grand Masters of Masons in Iowa. (L-R) Craig
Davis (2010), current G.M. Jerry L. Levay, and
Denny Zahrt (2006). Denny recently received

Camp Open Houses/Breakfasts can be a
great opportunity to reunite. (L-R) Camp's
Vice President, Winnie Williams; Secretary,

camp on the beautiful road it has traveled.
A big thank you to the Two Rivers Good Sams
for attending all the camp breakfasts/open
houses. They are also great supporters of
camp, and provide a labor of love with their
stocking hats and head bands they make for
campers.
It was an honor to have Fr. Tom Welu (L) visit
camp for the breakfast. Here Fr. Tom is with
Frank Balvanz from WMT. Frank was Leo
Greco's co-pilot for many years. Leo would
generally start off his show with a hymn, often
for his good friend, Fr. Tom. 10-months out
of the year Tom is in the Philippines where
he cares for the poorest who are in need of
medical attention and other needs. Camp
Courageous updates can continue to be
heard on Sundays at 8:30 AM and 12:30 PM
on WMT-AM 600 on the dial.

Thank you to Rachel Krebs of Durant
who collects pop can tabs for the Shriners
Transportation Fund and she collects the
pop cans for Camp Courageous. She then
cashes in the cans and gives the money to
camp. A lot of hard work went into raising
over $500! Rachel juggles all this with school
and work...we are grateful to her, and her
family have helped for years.
Pancake Breakfast & Open House
Thank you to all the volunteers and visitors that made it a big success!
Fr. Tom Welu, whose home was in Dubuque
and is now in the Philippines, is surrounded by
boxes of sports memorabilia he has donated
to camp in memory of Leo Greco. He has
asked that the money raised from the sale
of his collection go to provide for the most
severely and profoundly disabled campers
in Leo’s memory. The money raised will be
set-up in perpetuity in the Camp’s Foundation
thus helping campers forever. (L-R) Fr. Tom
Welu, Lance Greco, Bill Sterling, Mike Marlin,
and Larry Greco.

2011 Holiday Parties
a big hit with Youth & Adults
at Camp Courageous
The decorated Camp Courageous
lodge was the setting of the 2011
Annual Holiday Parties held on
December 7th and 8th. Hundreds
of area school students, staff, and
group home residents attended this
years festivities.
Youth party attendees enjoyed
swimming, the wall climb, mini-
golf, arts and crafts, nature center
activities, and more. Santa made
his appearance during all the parties
and everyone went away with a gift
and a smile.
The New Horizons Band
performed during the adult party.
A huge thank you to those that
donated gifts… they really made
the event special. The camp also
appreciates all of the volunteers
who helped with gift wrapping,
assisted with bringing people to
the parties, and helped during the
event. They are what make these
parties possible.
Students enjoyed singing along with holiday
songs. The line was long to get a chance at a
turn with the microphones.
Some students had the opportunity to make
holiday ornaments in the camp’s Arts &
Crafts building. They were able to take them
home and put them on their own trees.
The Nature Center was popular with the
students as they were able to get up close
with the animals.
Everyone had a chance to meet with Santa
and Mrs. Claus to tell them their holiday
wishes before receiving a gift.

In October 2011 GE Capital’s
People with Disabilities Network
hosted an event they called
“Paper-trails From GE to Camp
Courageous.” During a week-long
event they competed between
teams for highest total of items and
most creative display of packages.
As you can see in these photos…
they did a great job!
In the end, GE was able to donate 453,138
items of paper plates, cups, napkins, plastic
utensils, Kleenex, paper towels, toilet paper,
copy paper and baby wipes.
A great big thanks to Randy Faulkner for
picking the items up and bringing them to the

would need or enjoy. Ray said they would like
to come back and take a walk around camp
when the weather is a little warmer than late
December! Camp appreciates the Overmans
and all they do for camp.

Huge thanks goes out to the 8th grade class
from Mt. Vernon Middle School. The teachers
have made it a tradition for the students to
come and do service at camp 1-2 times a
year. This fall the students worked very hard
doing some clean-up at the lake area and
stocking up the wood sheds for winter. They
collected several large piles of rocks and
sticks from the grassy areas of what will be
Lake Todd. Thanks again MVMS 8th graders
and teachers!
You can see the latest updates and
changes to the Lake Todd area during
this years Omelet Breakfast on April

Thank you to Roy Tangeman, Faithful
Navigator, for inviting Camp Courageous to
give a program to the Fr. John R. Gallagher
Assembly 3180 of 4th Degree Knights

was land-locked and was later traded with
the State of Iowa, for what today is Camp
Courageous. Wonderful Knights and their
ladies.
Theisen's employee Connie Like presented
Becky Melchert from Camp Courageous a
check from the Theisen's Community Grant
Program. This generous check will be used
for camp's Lake Todd fence. A big thank you
goes to Theisens for this grant and the many
donations they make throughout the year.
This Anamosa business class held a fund
raiser to benet ve area charities—Camp
Courageous was among them! They held a

Courageous! It was a huge
success! We are grateful to all
those who participated, the bakers, the judges, the promoters, and all
who came to sample. A good time was had by all!
There were so many creative entires in this event! It was difcult for the judges to come
up with clear winners, but in the end some awards were given. Congratulations to Abby
Wennekamp and Jenny Hemmes as the Grand Champions with their entry of a Peppermint
Mocha Cupcake with infused peppermint extract and a delicious peppermint, vanilla butter
cream icing. On top of that were chocolate shavings, chocolate covered espresso beans and
a cute little peppermint stick. YUMMY! Mary Oldham won the People’s Choice with her entry
of a Strawberry Orange Margarita cupcake with a lime butter cream icing and a sugar rim.
Thank you to Jim Gommels and Dave from
the Iowa City Morning Quarterback Club for
saving plasticware for the camp. Camp goes

The 3rd annual “Walkin & Wheelin'
for Camp Courageous” was held
on Saturday November 12, 2011 at
Westdale Mall. Once again campers,
their families, group homes, schools,
and supporters of camp joined
together for a morning of walking and
fun. The walkers were entertained by
the sounds of the Pandemonium Steel
Drum from Dubuque, games led by
camp program staff, music from DJ
Ben Bollwitt, and various mascots
from the area including “McGruff the
Crime Dog.” Prizes for the 1st and
2nd teams raising the most money was
awarded after walking. Camp would
especially like to thank Westdale
Malle and the Soroptomist Club of
Cedar Rapids for helping with the set-
up on Friday night, volunteering at the
walk and helping with the clean up.
This year's event was a great success
and camp appreciated the efforts of all
who participated.
Walk participant Zach Bollwitt is entertained
by “McGruff the Crime Dog” and several
Camp Courageous staff members. The
counselors and program staff always enjoy
having Zach at camp and was delighted
when he attended the walk. Shown with
Zach is McGruff, volunteer Megan Wessels,
and program staff members Kristin Farrar,
Megan Alara, Jess Maier, and Tracey Koch.
For the 3rd year in a row, the Pandemonium
Steele Drum band entertained the walkers at
“Walkin’ & Wheelin’ for Camp Courageous”
event. Under the direction of Patti Millius, this
band travels from Dubuque just to take part in
the walk. Their music is always appreciated
and so much fun!
2011 Walkin’ & Wheelin’ for Camp Courageous
It was wonderful to see this large team from
Taft Middle School in Cedar Rapids. Students,
teachers and families showed their support
of camp and their school by participating and
wearing Taft and Camp Courageous apparel.
Taft students have been to many day camps
and other camp events and functions. Camp
certainly appreciates their support!
Placing second at this years event was
“Team Rachel.” Camper Rachel Sunne, the
daughter of David and Julie Sunne, has been
a respite and week-long camper for many
years. Rachel's family and friends are big
supporters of the camp. Rachel was awarded
an iPod Shufe for her team's efforts coming
in 2nd place. Great job Team Rachel!
This year’s rst place team at “Walkin’ &
Wheelin’” was “Team Megan.” This team
consisted of family and friends of camper
Megan Staner. Megan's team showed a
tremendous amount of generosity and
support for camp, and for their efforts they
received a certicate good for a pool, pizza,
and pop party at the Camp Courageous
Pool. This is the second time Megan took
home the 1st place award. Many thanks to
Megan’s parents Don and Angie Staner from
Edgewood and the entire team.

SOS-Share Our Skills that did all the quilts for
camp! This group has been gathering for the
past 32-years and members total almost 400!
Had a nice visit with Jennette Achenbach,
who was one of the rst cooks at camp in
those very early years. Also visited with
Brenda Hilderbrand who has been bringing
her students from the Cedar Rapids School
System to Camp Courageous for 30 years!

Marginal Note: Life is a mirror and will reect back to the thinker what they think into it.
Thank you to Wayne Schoel for inviting
Camp Courageous to give a program to
their Knights of Columbus and their ladies.
We met in the new, beautiful Jesus Christ,
Prince of Peace Church in Clinton. Great
group including some teachers and relatives
of campers. Camp Courageous would be
happy to give a program to any group, at any
time, at no charge. Drop camp an e-mail or
note or call if you are interested.
Rick Cook and Tom Brennan with the
Anamosa Knights of Columbus Council
1791 presents a generous check to Camp
Courageous. The Knights are a wonderful
organization and camp is grateful to have
Council 1791 as a friend. Camp is grateful to
Rick and Tom for taking time out of their busy
lives to deliver the check.
Steve Kueter with
the North Linn
Knights of Columbus
Council 12136
presents a check to
Camp Courageous
from their annual
Tootsie Roll Drive.
The camp really
appreciates all the
hard work that goes
into this drive and to
Council 12136 for
their generosity over
many years.
Columbus Council 7294 continues their
support of the camp. (L-R) Grand Knight
Steve Messer and Past Grand Knight, Steve
Slobodnik do an outstanding job raising funds
to send area special need students to Camp
Courageous. Jim has a daughter, Laura, who
attends Camp Courageous. This year's gift
was in memory of deceased brother Knights,
John Veith and Mark Fitzpatrick.
(L-R) Camp’s Travel Director, Rolando
Morales accepts a check from John White of
the Jesup Knights of Columbus. A wonderful
group of long time supporters. Thanks to
Norb Bahl and others, Jesup has been a
key community for camp’s success over the
years.
Thank you to Pat
Powers, Camp
Courageous’
Ambassador
in the Webster
City area, who
is presenting
a check from
the Knights of
Columbus in

Pat also sells
fruitcakes for the

a result of the
group’s Tootsie

We can’t thank
them enough for considering the camp to be
a beneciary of their sales efforts.
Thank you to Salem Friends Church
and Pastor Scott Morin for giving Camp
Courageous the opportunity to present a
program to their Mission Convention. Met
many new friends and rekindled relationships
with old friends.
Counselor Tracy Koch from Sabula, IA and
camper Chris Kaska from Cedar Rapids,
IA were inseparable during Chris' week at
camp. Chris has been coming to camp for
over 30 years! He favorite activity this year
was the recumbent bicycle.
Camper Marie Vandermillen from Cedar
Rapids, IA is pictured with her Super Zip
Award. 2011 marks Marie's 4th year at
camp. She is so much fun to be around,
we all hope she comes back again soon!
Happy Birthday! Pictured is Mark Forsmark
of Muscatine, IA. He celebrated his 50th
birthday at camp this year. He has been
coming to camp for over 30 years. It is
always a pleasure to have him join us for

For many years, camp has loaned much of
our cross country ski equipment to Special
Olympics Iowa for use at the State Winter
Games competition in January. Over the
years, wear and tear has taken some
equipment out of commission. This year,
we hoped to replace about a dozen sets
of skis, poles and boots. Thanks to Darrin
Siefken, owner of CrawDaddy Outdoors in
Waverly, and Pam Wagner, VP of Games
and Competition for Special Olympics Iowa,
we were able to make it happen. Darrin was
able to give us a great discount and Pam
was able to secure the funds needed. Both
campers and Special Olympics athletes will
really enjoy using this great new equipment
when the snow is ying!
Thank you to camp board member, Jim Foels,
for inviting Camp Courageous to attend the
Ruritan Tall Corn District Convention in Pekin,
Iowa. It was a great opportunity to rekindle
many memories and friendships. It was at a
Ruritan convention, many years ago, that we
met Honorary Camp Board Member Ralph
Palmer, who was their motivational speaker.
(Front L-R) is Lt. Governor, Rusty Clayton;
District Governor, Joe Morgan; and emcee,
Robert Wonderlich. We thank all the Ruritan
Clubs for their support!
The Newhall Lions had a special memorial
breakfast for long time member, and dear
friend of Camp Courageous, Richard
Grovert. It was a great opportunity to visit
with Richard's family (L-R) Cathy Kilawee (3-
in); Bob Grovert (middle with glasses), Jane
Hagen (far right), and community members.
Richard touched many lives in a wonderful
way.
The Loyal Workers and Friends from the
Stanwood area once again made a trip to
camp to volunteer on a late October morning.
These ladies have been coming to camp to
work for many years and have done a variety
of tasks including mailings and cleaning. This
year they spent the morning wrapping gifts
for the Camper's Holiday Parties. In addition
to working, they brought several beautiful
quilts and other much needed items. It was
wonderful to see them again. Thanks Ladies!
Theresa Hansen from DeWitt (3rd right)
stopped by with friends for a tour of camp.
They brought many wonderful items that can
be used throughout the camp.
Marilyn Mehlhaus from Dysart has been
extremely busy! She handcrafted 6 beautiful
quilts from colorful and seasonal fabric and
donated them to camp. The campers will
surely love these quilts. Thank you so much
Marilyn for the quilts and for delivering them
to camp.
Camp Courageous was honored to have the
2011 Class of the Jones County Leadership
participants out to camp for their rst session.
A super nice group of current and future
Jones County leaders.
Camper Mary Ellen Webster from
Davenport, IA had a great time petting
and riding camp's newest horse, Max.
She is pictured showing off her award.
Camper Kenneth Griggs of Davenport,
IA and counselor Stacey Patterson of
Harrisburg, NC smile for the camera.
Kenneth is a great conversationalist and
had the counselors laughing all week long!
He loves telling stories.
Camper Alex Heller of Woodward, IA and
counselor Heather Williams of Redding,
CA show off Alex's swimming award. Alex
loved kicking back and relaxing in camp's
indoor pool. Alex has been coming to
camp since he was 4 years old.

Marginal Note: It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves.
Camp Courageous is run on donations, without government assistance, without formal sponsorship, or paid fund raisers.
What this means is that everything that is given to camp; whether it be food, time, materials, or financial support; goes directly
to benefit over 6,000 individuals with special needs who are touched by the camp each year. Listed below are those who have
contributed money, time, and/or supplies from September 21, 2011 to December 31, 2011.
Thank
you!

Marginal Note:
Some of the world’s greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enough to know they were impossible.
This donation
is in honor of Bill
and Helen Kline’s
50th wedding
anniversary, and
in memory of
their daughter
Deb Kline. Deb
attended Camp
Courageous for many years of her
life. She loved having a place where
she felt like she was like everyone
else. Going to Camp Courageous
was her favorite thing to do and
she talked about her time there and
anticipation of her next visit almost
every day. Deb passed away in 2000
and our family feels strongly that she
lived such a full life, in large part
to the joy she experienced at Camp
Courageous.
Our family holds Camp Courageous
very near and dear to our hearts. We
Thank you for all of the hard work
everyone does and the joy they bring to
so many people’s lives.
Sincerely,
Jackie Duncan (Deb’s Niece)

Marginal Note: When solving problems, dig at the roots instead of just hacking at the leaves.
Consider applying for a volunteer,
internship or paid position at Camp
Courageous this Summer! Working with
children and adults with special needs is

feeding, dressing and personal hygiene.
Some campers exhibit behavior challenges.
Patience, energy, good judgment, and
enthusiasm are important qualications for
a position at Camp Courageous.
Positions available in program, dietary,
and nursing. The hours are long. An
unselsh attitude and an emphasis on
teamwork are needed. If you have the
necessary attributes, apply for a position at
camp. Room and board is provided. Non-
smokers only.
Summer season: May 20-Aug. 17

18 JANUARY 2012 — Camp Courageous — www.campcourageous.org
Hi my name is Clinton
Modinger… In the
summer of 2005 I came
from Australia to Camp
Courageous to work as a
camp counsellor. I believe
that Camp Courageous is a
place where you can witness
real magic happen.
This can be seen by the
love and respect the staff
at Camp Courageous have
for their campers. Week
after week these exceptional people improve the lives
of people with a disability by allowing them to take
some time away from their normal daily routines to
participate in recreational and social activities. I am
very proud to say I have worked for the camp. I have
met some truly amazing people and I have been able
to remain friends with some of those amazing people.
I returned to Camp Courageous earlier this month to
be a part of a wedding of two former camp counsellors
who I have a lot of respect and love for. Their wedding
was just unreal and the weather was very kind to
them which I have heard is rare for Iowa in October.
They, like many other people who have been married
after working at Camp Courageous, were touched by
the magic of the camp. It brings people together and
enables them to do amazing things and develop strong
bonds with each other.
Being back at the camp for the rst time in 6 years
was a wonderful experience for me. While I was there
I witnessed a few camp counsellors working with their
campers displaying the same level of love and respect
for their campers that I have come to expect from
counsellors at Camp Courageous.
If there is one thing I could say to the current group
of camp counsellors it would be that you are all here
because you are amazing people. Keep up the great
work you do and welcome to the Camp Courageous
family.
Thank you for reading my story and I hope that
Camp can ll your hearts with pride like it has mine.
I would love to come back and do another summer
sometime and I hope that is sooner rather than later.
I wish everyone reading my story a Merry Christmas
and a happy and safe 2012

Camp is very fortunate to have had 70
small square bales of hay donated by
Ed, Sharon, Charlie and Christine Roller
this past summer and fall. This hay
helped to keep our miniature horses,
goats, and lambs fed throughout the two
camping seasons. Thanks so much for
your much needed donation!

20 JANUARY 2012 — Camp Courageous — www.campcourageous.org
(L-R) Counselor Kevin Rhodes of Barstow,
CA and camper Bob Russell of Woodward,
IA smile for the camera while enjoying all the
animals in the nature center. During his week
at camp he made a pinecone bird feeder and
an edible “campre” out of licorice, pretzels,
chocolate covered raisins, and bugles. The
best part was eating the creation!

Camp Courageous
has been awarded a
$20,000 grant from
the Dubuque Racing Association.
This grant was used for the
installation of a fence surrounding the
camp's lake property. The members
of the DRA grant committee
recognized the importance of this
fence in keeping campers using
the lake safe from the busy 190th
Street trafc and the prevention of
injury by any unauthorized users of
the lake. The DRA has worked with
camp form many years by providing
grants for projects including a bus
and mini-bus, a water system for
the camp, building the Jungle Gym,
purchasing debrillators, furnishing
the staff dorm, and purchasing ofce
furniture for the visitor's center.

Marginal Note: Motivation is when your dreams put on work clothes.
Robert Curoe, 85,
formerly of Bernard,
Iowa, passed away
this fall. Bob and his
wife, Joyce were great
supporters of the camp.
Bob was an awfully
nice gentleman. Very
involved in attending
camp breakfasts,
duathlons, and more.
Bob & Joyce would
have their children come in from all over
the US to attend the Camp”s Duathlon
and then have a family reunion. Just a
real soft-spoken gentleman. One of the
boys told me at Bob’s visitation that after
62-years old, he learned to ski (was on
the ski patrol), bike, run, published two
books, and a lot more.
Bob’s Camp Courageous “Courageous
Award” Trophy was front and center on
his table of treasurers.
Camp’s sympathy goes
out to his six children,
Michael (Estie) Curoe
of St. Louis, MO, Joann
(Devin) Stephens of
St. Onge, SD, Kevin
(Darlene) of Bernard,
Carol (Susan) of
Minneapolis, MN, Patty
(Steve) Telgener of
Golden, CO and Tim
(Kristi) of Chaska, MN.
Thank you to Judy Blank who invited Camp
Courageous to give a program to the Beta
Sigma Phi Preceptor Lambda in Cedar
Rapids. A super nice group of ladies, who
had honored Dotty Cummins a number
of years ago, for her work with those with
special needs.
A big thank you to (L-R) Cody Davis, Sheri
and Craig Lampe, and Taylor Young for their
vehicle load of needed items for the camp.
Sheri, Craig, and Taylor were volunteers at
camp this summer. It was like a mini-reunion
with camp staff who all worked with the same
campers. We look forward to seeing more of
this group in the future!
(L-R) Counselor Dawa Sherpa from
Kathmandu, Nepal is pictured with camper
Jeff Kruse from Waukon, IA. Jeff loved
oating around camp's pool during his week
at camp and received the Swimming Award.
Pictured is camper Leo Pettitt from Mt.
Vernon, IA. He and Paco, the ferret became
great friends his week at camp. Leo also
loved watching the turtles swim around their
tank and catch their food. There wasn't an
activity he didn't enjoy or participate in!
Pictured (L-R) are counselor Kevin Rhodes
of Barstow, CA and campers Troy Crane of
Sigourney, IA, Leo Pettit of Mt. Vernon, IA
and Jim Williams of Sigourney, IA enjoying
a train ride on a beautiful fall day. They
are all in the accessible car provided by
the C.U.B.S. bicycling group (Chicago
Urban Bicycling Society). Camp’s train is a
camper favorite.
It was a treat to have Honorary Board
Member Gary Turbes and his wife Jan visit
Camp Courageous. Gary was Camp's rst
director. His incredible dedication and hard
work from about 1972-1976 was key to build-
ing the foundation from which the camp has
grown. Gary left camp and established Mid-
Step Services in Sioux City. They currently
manage over 20 residential and vocational
programs in Cherokee, Lawton, Moville,
Sergeant Bluff, and Sioux City IA. He is also
playing a key role in the building of Camp
High Hope in Sioux City.
Super Volunteer Sheri Lampe of West Point,
IA spent her winter break at camp doing many
chores that needed attention. From peeling
apples in the kitchen to hand addressing
Holiday Cards, Sheri was a huge help. We
look forward to her and her husband Craig’s
return this summer!

Six Chapters of the Iowa Winnie Hawks (All
Winnebago Owners) came to camp for a tour
and presented camp a nice donation. They
were a wonderful group! Coming from all
over Iowa, they were very interested in the
camp. Thank you to Louie Walderdach who
was the contact. Tours are available seven
days-a-week and can be arranged through
e-mail or contacting the camp.

With most of camp's copier
needs done in house, the Camp
Courageous copier has made
nearly 1 million copies in it's
lifetime. Many of those copies go
to the over 6,000 individuals with
special needs served at camp
each year.
Each week-long camper receives an
award at the end of their stay that has
been designed by camp staff and printed
on the copier. The award ceremony is
the culmination of an exciting week and
is a highlight for most of the campers. In
addition, pages of med sheets and special
diet sheets are printed each week and
sometimes on a daily basis.
While camp is attempting to limit paper
usage, most of the camper schedules and
applications are printed using the camp
copier. Letters for camp supporters, and
Camp Courageous in Need of a New Copier
booklets and yers for various
fund raisers are also printed
at camp, saving a tremendous
amount of money by producing
them at camp.
Unfortunately, the current
copier has become obsolete. It is
slower and doesn't have the capabilities
of newer technology offered today. It can
no longer “talk” to the computers being
operated at camp (software drivers are no
longer being developed). This function
allows camp to be more efcient and
print/copy only as necessary. After much
research and comparison shopping, camp
is able to purchase a new machine at a
price of $9,960 plus tax. Please consider
making a donation toward the purchase of
a new copier. This machine would serve
the needs of camp and the campers served
here for many years to come.
Camper Byron Gansemer of Dubuque is

rst started attending Camp Courageous in
1998.
Thank you to Destinations Unlimited, along
with Lance and Leisa Greco for hosting the
10th Annual Branson Christmas Getaway,
a fund raiser for Camp Courageous. Great
shows, food, shopping, and great folks!
November 12-15, 2012 are the dates already
scheduled for this year, which is arranged
around Daniel O'Donnell's schedule. Contact
Lisa Gilliatt at Destinations Unlimited to book
today at 800-391-1359.
Thank you to Kenneth & Joan Chaloupka
of Iowa City for traveling to camp with the
donation of over 60 scrapbooks and other
needed items. Wonderful couple.
Maxine Wilson, Joan Bartenhagen, and Betty
Wilson with the Port Louisa Farm Bureau and
the Island Methodist Church traveled from the
Muscatine area to deliver a large donation.
Included in this donation was numerous bags
and boxes of paper, paper products, can tabs
and other much needed items. The Island
Methodist Church Women were also very
busy the past year. They stitched several
beautiful quilts for the campers to enjoy. It is
always wonderful to have these ladies visit
camp and we hope they make it back soon.
Edna Pierce (seated) and Marian Mohr with
the Cedar County Farm Bureau Ladies made
a wonderful delivery to Camp Courageous
of paper products, arts and crafts supplies
and can tabs. These ladies are familiar faces
at camp as they have been volunteering
for many years. We look forward to them
coming again in the spring to fold camper
T-shirts! Thanks ladies.
A BIG Thank You goes out to Knights of
Columbus Council 14987 in Cedar Falls,
for raising money from their Toosie Roll
Drive and donating some of it to Camp
Courageous. Pictured here (L-R) are Eric
Moellers, Grand Knight and Travis Hoing,
Deputy Grand Knight. Back in 2009 Eric
helped build the accessible trail that leads to
our cave. Thank you Gentlemen for all that
you do for individuals with Special Needs.
Thank you to all who have contributed to
making the camp’s new horse cart possible.
Camp has been needing an accessible
horse cart for quite some time and because
of donations from the McDonald family from
various states across the U.S, the Lux family
of Monticello, and 2011’s Summer Camp
Staff, we were nally able to put in the order
to Justin Carriage Company of Nashville,
Michigan to have the cart special made and
delivered for our program.

Congratulations to Sue Gudenkauf (center)
who recently took the Consecration as a
Virgin Living in the World. The ceremony took
place in Madison WI by the Most Reverend
Robert C. Morlino, Bishop of Madison. Those
wishing to honor Sue, were encouraged to
make a donation to Camp Courageous. Sue
(surrounded by her wonderful folks Gene &
Anita of Cascade) was one of camp’s most
exceptional counselor/assistant respite care
directors. She was extremely good with
campers and had a real heart for her work.
She started volunteering while in high school,
and volunteered for many years. We wish
Sue the best.
A very special thank you to camp’s dear
friends, Steve Carpenter (top picture),
formerly of WMT, now with Kirkwood
Community College and Peter Teahen,
with Teahen Funeral Homes, for inviting
Camp Courageous to the Cedar Rapids
Daybreak Rotary. Steve has been active
with Camp Courageous since coming to
Cedar Rapids in the early 80s. His rst
day, he took Rick Sellers, then, General
Manager of WMT, to K-Mart East in
Cedar Rapids to promote Pineapple
Sales. He has never stopped being a
loyal supporter of Camp. Peter Teahen
has a wonderful reputation of helping
others when they need help the most.
From disasters around the world....to
disasters within our own family, Peter is
there to help. We have called on Peter
a number of times throughout the camp's
history to lend the camp staff some of his
professional talents, and he has always
been there for us. Our warm appreciation
goes out to the members of the Day
Break Rotary for their support of camp!
A big thank you to our friends at Alliant
Energy Foundation for their great support
of the camp. (L-R) Justin Mottet and Jason
Sauer recently presented a check from the
Foundation to be used for the fence that
surrounds the new lake area. We are grateful
for their years of support!
Thank you to
the Center Point
Lions Club for
their great support
of camp! Here

Dennis is the son
of outstanding
camp volunteer,
Fran DeMarc!
The Monticello
area has lost an
incredibly hard
working and
dedicated person
with the recent
passing of Rex
Cheney.
My rst
impression of
Monticello was
Rex Cheney's Dairy Mart. I was part of
a youth organization in the late 60s that
traveled the state and it was a tradition
to never go through Monticello without
stopping at the Monticello Dairy Mart.
Rex had a warm and fun personality
and everyone in our group of dozens
of kids, knew Rex. Many new cars had
their rst spill in them, as a result of an
ice cream cone bought from Rex.
In 1976, when I student taught in
Monticello, and money was extremely
tight, it was a special treat once every
week or two to get one of Rex's
famous chocolate shakes to take to
home to Dubuque or to school in Iowa
City. I always knew I had a friend in
Monticello I could call on at any time.
In 1980, when we moved to
Monticello, Rex Cheney, Glen
Gabriel, Bob Ferrell, and I would
head to Anamosa once a month for
meetings. I would laugh all the way
over and all the way back as the
jokes and teasing would just ow....
incredible commardry. So many
precious memories from a group that
would help anyone in need.
I remember special occasions in the
early 80s. Dinner would consist of a
hamburger, chocolate shake, and onion
rings from Rex... it didn't get any better
than that.
Rex always gave 100% whether it
was work, Lodge, Eagles, or Camp
Courageous. He was a dear friend to
the camp. There wasn't anything he
would not do for it.
His sense of humor and personality
will be dearly missed. Our sympathy
goes out to his family and friends.

Thank you to Jones Regional Medical Center
Auxiliary who held their October meeting in
the Sill Barn at camp. We had the opportunity
to talk about the wonderful relationship
between JRMC and Camp Courageous.
To have a modern, state of the art medical
center, with an exceptional staff, within
minutes of the camp, is crucial to the well
being of thousands of campers, staff, and
visitors. Above, Eric Briesemeister, CEO of
JRMC, visits with the auxiliary on the latest
happenings at the Medical Center.
Gary Dolphin (R) shows one of the auction
items sold at this year’s Very Special Arts
Event in Dubuque. VSA has been supporting
Camp’s Arts Program for many years. They

programs for those with special needs during
their 100 Men Who Cook Event. Tickets are
available every September through Camp.
Honorary Board Member, Liz Valliere
presents a check from her Camp Courageous
2nd Wednesday Bridge Marathon group.
This group has been playing Bridge for camp
for over 30 years! Members include Kay Pitlik
and also included Dotty Cummins at one
time. Liz is a delight!
Charlie,
I just wanted to thank you for the
opportunity to meet one of your
great board members, Jim Foels. The
Chicago Urban Bicycling Society
(CUBS) board elected me to replace
Jerry Turry, and I know that I have
some awfully big shoes to ll. But,
meeting people like Jim and Elsie
Foels makes all the work worthwhile.
Jim was kind enough to donate a day
on his farm, and I was crazy enough
to outbid the competition. It helps
when you get to be the auctioneer too.
After winning, Jim and I made our
arrangements, and I took two nervous
“farmers” with me to spend the day.
We could not have had a better time!
For our entire family, it will long be
a day to remember. I can only hope
that Jim donates this again next year,
because I will sell it like mad at our
2012 auction. I am enclosing some of
the pictures of Albena, Nicole, and me
at the farm.
We had an extra benet above what
was part of our package as well. Jim’s
son raises hogs at his farm, adjacent to
Jim and Elsie’s farm. He took us there,
and Nicole got to see that as well.
Before we left town on our way home,
we stopped at the locker to stock up on
pork that had been raised on his farm.
Not only do we have the memories,
but we also have a freezer full of Iowa
pork, raised by our new friends.
Thanks again. I look forward to
another strong year of connection
between CUBS and Camp.

Congratulations to LaVern “Flute” and Jean
Weber of Cascade on their 50th wedding
anniversary! Flute was the key player in
the building of the new Lake Todd at Camp
Courageous and, along with his son, Mark,
has done a tremendous amount of volunteer
work at the camp. The Webers had their entire
family to Camp for the Pancake Breakfast/
Open House the last Sunday in September…
a great family!
Thank you to Linn-Mar Success Center
Transition Program for inviting Camp
Courageous to their Fall Open House. Very
impressive program! Our hats go off to Trish
Chalupsky and the entire staff and students
for their exceptional work!
Thanks to our friends from Our Savior
Lutheran Church in Manchester. For several
years the Junior Acts Youth Group has been
coming to camp to do whatever work project
we need done. This year they help pick up
debris from the lake area. Huge thanks to
the adult leaders Dawn & Kenny Miller and
Dave & Julie Sunne, as well as the youth who
worked so hard.
Above and some of the participants in the
Annual Sucker Tournament on the Wapsi.
Andre Smith won the competition and
donated his winnings to the pond project at

Good Time at Camp!
Camp Courageous held it’s annual free camper
Halloween Party on October 27th in the spooky main
lodge. Campers, staff, and visitors had a great time
during the dance and enjoyed refreshments.
During the event a costume contest was held. Judging
wasn’t easy since there were so many great outts.
Pictured are the winners.
The camp lodge once again was alive
with the sights and sounds of callers and
cuers, the swish and swirls of brightly
colored dresses, and the men with their
string or matching ties as the annual square
dance benet for Camp Courageous was
held on October 9th. Sponsored by the
East Central Federation and Cedar Valley
Callers Association, this was the 22nd
year for this event with another successful
turnout of dancers and spectators. Next
years event will be held on October 14,
2012, so mark your calendars!
These gentleman helped with the calling and
cueing duties for the 22nd annual square
dance benet for Camp Courageous. They
decided to pool their talents for a “Grand
Finale” as they share the duties of calling the
last song of the day for the dancers.
Jim and Garnet Hoffner helped organize this
years square dance benet. Jim helped with
accepting donations at the door and Garnet
shared in the calling duties. Many thanks to
the Hoffners’ for their years of dedication to
this event.
Annual Square Dance Benefit a Big Hit!

Jeryl Bacon of Hopkinton
died Monday morning,
Oct. 24 at the age of
69. I've had the good
fortune of knowing
Chuck & Jeryl Bacon for
over 30-years. Always
referred to her as "Mrs.
B". Over the years
they were very good
to camp. Never a time
they did not help camp out, when help was
needed. Mrs. B. was a spirited, wonderful
lady, who lifted the spirits of those around
her. A hard working, dedicated lady,
who loved her kids and grandkids....and
husband. Had the opportunity to stop by
the Triple C Convenience Store a while back
and we had a wonderful visit and she sealed
the visit with a hug...I never realized it would
be our last visit. Our sympathy goes out to
her husband, Chuck, and children, Crystal,
Chop, Curt, and Callie and their families and
friends. We will sure miss her smiling face
and fun personality.
T-shirts are ordered throughout the
year making it easy for sponsors
to be added at anytime. A gift of
$500.00 provides a 4” X 6” space on
the back of the T-shirt for your logo
or name for an entire year.
With over 6,000 campers in 2011
what better way to show you care?
Make this the year you
bring a smile to the face of
another camper!

program to the Manchester Rotary Club. The
Manchester Rotary has been good regular
supporters of the camp and the Manchester
Garage Sale for decades. In front of Dave is
his sister, Mary Lou Tracey. Both have been
very involved with the camp....as was their
mother, who I fondly remember when she was
in her 90s bringing Honorary Board Member
Jackie Snyder items for the Manchester
Camp Garage Sale. Super group!
Thank you to Shirley Wiley and the Brandon
Methodist Church for inviting Camp
Courageous to their after school program.
The wonderful students collected a car load
of items needed by the camp. Great group of
students and adults!
Thank you to the wonderful Hills Town and
Country who once again this year provided
Camp Courageous with gifts for Santa to give
to the campers and goodies off the needs
list. Thank you to Cathy Fitzmaurice-Hill for
inviting camp and to all our dear friends who
are members of this great group!
Mike is a 15 year old Hainger gelding
donated anonymously to camp this October.
Mike is not only trained to give rides on his

recreation activities at camp this week
that he received the “Recreation Award”.

Marian Williams,
83, of Dubuque
recently passed
away. Marian was
a friend for over
40-years. She was
director of Retired
Senior Volunteer
Services (RSVP)
and had them very
involved in Camp
Courageous. She
was involved with
the Agency on Aging and on the State
Commission for the Blind. Always there to
help others, we have dearly missed her
many visits and acts of kindness at camp.
Seldom did Marian ever miss a camp
breakfast or other special occasions
at the camp. Our sympathy goes out to
her children, Paul, Gary, and Mary Beth.
Marian requested her memorials to go to
Camp Courageous.
Lynn Pierce, an employee of Scheels in
Cedar Falls, stands by a large donation of
misc. camping items, sport and game items,
and shing items donated by the store.
Scheels has been very good to camp over
the years, donating many things that campers
can use during their stay. In addition to the
wonderful Scheels donations, Lynn and his
daughter Mindy Gilroy gave a large donation
of paper products, Chap Stick, soap, and
tooth brushes. Many thanks to Scheels, Lynn
and Mindy.
Camp was thrilled to have the Rachel Circle
and Friends from the Brandon area volunteer
again this year. When these ladies come, they
make a day of it! Several donations from the
camp's needs list was also delivered. They
worked on 2 separate large mailings. With
their experience, it was done in record time! It
is always wonderful to see their familiar faces
and a few new ones as well!
For those who have an IRA, 401K, or other
types of retirement plans…
One knows they are a great means to save tax-free for retirement. Generally,
one does not pay taxes on the income one contributes, or on the earnings or
appreciation the investments generates, until a withdraw is made. When one
dies, these assets are taxable income to those individuals they are given to.
If you make a charitable contribution from an IRA or other retirement plan,
the total amount designated to a charity, like Camp Courageous, goes to the
charity tax-free. Appreciated and other assets that are not subject to income
tax can be left to family and friends with no tax burden to them.
For more information on giving a gift to Camp Courageous that will give
forever, please contact Charlie Becker at Camp Courageous at any time,
7-days a week.
Thank you to our good friends at the National
Park Service in Omaha, NE for giving Camp
Courageous the opportunity to be a part of
a Midwest Regional Discussion Panel on
inclusion. It was an great opportunity to learn
more about our National Parks and their goal
to be very inclusive. Camp Courageous has
visited most the country's National Parks
through the Travel Program and have always
felt camp has received exceptional service
and care by the NPS Staff.
A big thank you to Mel Holubar for inviting
camp to give a presentation to the Marion
Sunrisers Kiwanis Club. This group has been
supporting camp since the very early years of
the camp. These long time supporters meet
at the Marion Hy-Vee and have traveled to
camp on numerous occasions to donate
items, like a wonderful youth rst aid kit!
A great group to join, if you are looking for
good and carrying folks. Members include (L-
R) Mel Holubar, Mary Ellen Wright, Carolyn
Holubar, Nancy Domer, Norm Wright, Donna
Bean, Emil Koval, George Domer, and Will
Ogle. Not present were Don Bean, Jim &
Mildred Jessen, and Gordon Bowser.
Jerry Reichert was a wonderful camper who
attended Camp Courageous, almost since
the beginning. In Jerry's memory, family and
friends gave a gift to the camp's perpetual
fund, so Jerry's memory will stay alive, for-
ever, along with some of Jerry's belongings
and a beautiful collage of Jerry's activities
over the years at camp. Pictured are Howard
Vanwinkle, Bill Blake, and Sandy Vanwinkle.
Camp Courageous’ holiday party for staff
was catered by the Marion Hy-Vee...manager
of food service, Dien X. Nguyen and Andrea
Gates. They did an exceptional job! Their
dedication and love for their work shined
through and they were a big hit with the staff!
They are wonderful to camp the year round.

Marginal Note: Kindness, like a towel, is needed at once. If you have to wait for it, you won’t need it.
A volunteer is not paid, not
because they are worthless, but
because they are priceless.”

to help with grounds cleanup at the new lake
area. We look forward to having the Legacy
group help out at camp again in the future.
Thanks to UNI

part of her social
work class.

It was great to have physical

University of Iowa helping again
this fall at Camp Courageous.
The students come to camp as
part of their service learning
class. They work as volunteer
counselors during respite care
weekends.
Once again Dennis Smith of Audubon,
IA returned to volunteer a week of his
time to Camp Courageous. For the past
several years he’s been a great help in the
Maintenance and Dietary departments.
Thank you, Dennis, and we look forward to
next summer’s week with you!
Camp welcomes volunteer Molly Tabor.
Molly is taking part of the Community Service
Program through the Monticello Community
Schools. She is volunteering in the ofce
every other afternoon doing various tasks.
Although Molly is new to the ofce, she is
no stranger to camp. She helped with the
camp swimming lessons program last winter.
Thanks Molly!
Mary Louise Caponette from Muscatine
scheduled a tour of camp for some of the
ladies from St. Mary’s and St. Matthias
parishes. They visited on a beautiful fall
morning and enjoyed the tour and lunch with
the campers! Only 2 of the ladies had been
to camp previously, so it was wonderful to
show them all camp has to offer. Camp was
delighted to have them as guests and hope
they make a return visit.

Where is Camp Courageous located?
The camp is located ve miles south of Monticello,
Iowa off Highway 38 or 151. The camp lies on 80 acres
of wooded land surrounded by thousands of acres of
state primitive land and the Maquoketa River. Use US
Highway 151 exit 65, turn south on Hwy 38, then east
on 190th Street (all hard-surfaced roads).
How can I help?
Camp Courageous continues to operate
on donations, without government assistance,
without formal sponsorship, and without paid
fund-raisers. What this means is that everything
that is given to the Camp, goes directly to benet
the campers. One of the reasons the Camp
has grown from serving 211 campers in 1974
to over 5,000 campers today, is the incredible
dedication of volunteers. Volunteer help is
needed in virtually every aspect of the camp.
Please consider volunteering your time and
talents to Camp Courageous.
Where can I get more info?
Please visit the camp’s web site at
www.campcourageous.org

and drive. It
is always a
pleasure to have
Randy spend a
week at camp..
He has been
coming from the Clear Lake, IA area since
1981 and we look forward to his future
week-long camps in the coming years.
